Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 Good Morning All Ive been in a kinda funk, really beating myself up for my 10-15 bounce back regain. No matter what I tried nothing was making the dang hunkametal move. Then I talked to Dr Fisher and felt worse.It seemed in his opinion everything Im trying is wrong. SIGH ! But then I remembered something my dear friend Francisco told me. Look at how far Ive come. Yes, I initially lost 165 pounds. I regained 10-15, but Ive MAINTAINED a 150 pound loss for over a year and a half! I would call that successful !! Im still in a 10/12 instead of a 32! I completed a half marathon, and I make the right food choices 90% of the time. Im living!! Ok, so I do obsess about getting to 135. But, I really need to take a look at what Ive achieved and not always focus on what I haven't. This is a life journey, yes Im struggling with some old behaviors from time to time. Im seeking help on those so that they don't come back full force. So as long as I don't become complacent and begin rationalizing away bad habits, as long as its a 90/10 way of life and I don't start regaining more- I think I need to be nicer to me and realize that Im succeeding more than failing. I am maintaining!! When have I ever done that in my life!! Ok, thanks for letting me vent. I kinda just needed to self talk this out and putting it here helps. Huggles Quote
